Who doesn't like chocolate??? These CHOCOLATE KISSES look great and taste even better!!

I made these cute little Chocolate Kisses for one of my closest friends I have known for more than twenty years. I changed the recipe a little by using Milk Chocolate instead of Dark Chocolate and decorated these by writing '40' in pink icing on them in honour of my friend's 40th birthday. These were super easy to make and they looked really professional.
